Characters of the Amoeba. — The amcebaj, as seen in the stools of a case of amoebic dysentery, are rounded or somewhat irregular proto- plasmic masses, usually measuring about 25 to 35 /x in diameter, though both larger and smaller forms are met with. When the parasite is at rest it has a more or less rounded shape; the protoplasm is finely granular and of refractile appearance, and is without differentiation into layers. The organism may show sluggish amoebic movements at the ordinary temperature, but these become much more active when a warm stage is used. When they occur, the amoeba shows differentiation into a central granular endoplasm and an outer hyaline layer or ectoplasm which is very thin and well marked off from the former. The blunt processes which are protruded in amoebic movement are --'Ch^.
